Digging, and planting, potatoes

So another nice weekend day, and another load more digging. I managed to turn over this entire plot to a depth of about 2 foot, and removed a load of glass, weeds, roots and stones. This plot contains Maris Peer potatoes, which I've never heard of but hopefully will provide a good crop of tastiness.

I have another load of potatoes yet to plant, but I need to dig roughly the same again somewhere else in the garden and, bizarre as it may sound, I'm running out of space where I can do that.

About Me

I am a normal(ish) 30ish male who is considering the benefits (and possibility) of 'homesteading' and self sufficiency while holding down a full time job AND a full time business. I hope to write about my successes and (hopefully fewer) failures here, so others can be inspired and maybe get on with it themselves.
